Question
a nurse is assisting a postpartum client who had a cesarean birth with breastfeeding their newborn. which of the following breastfeeding positions should the nurse suggest to the client? football hold modified cradle side - lying cradle hold
For a postpartum client who had a cesarean birth, the football hold (also known as the clutch hold) is beneficial. In this position, the baby is held alongside the mother's side, which helps avoid pressure on the abdominal incision (from the cesarean). The other positions (modified cradle, side - lying, cradle hold) may potentially put more pressure on the abdominal area compared to the football hold.
